Colts Injury Report: Colts Banged Up On Defense

The Indianapolis Colts today released their Thursday injury report for Week 7 of the NFL season ahead of their Sunday night game.

Wide receiver TY Hilton continued to miss practice today with a quad injury. Hilton said today he is in a good place with his quad injury and that he is 50/50 to play Sunday night. The Colts need Hilton, he proved on Sunday just how big of a piece he is in offense.

Linebacker Darius Leonard was limited today at practice with an ankle injury. Leonard didn’t practice yesterday but managed to practice some today. Leonard is still struggling with an ankle injury but appears he will still play Sunday on it like he has all season.

Defensive end Tyquan Lewis was limited today with an elbow injury. Lewis needs to continue to practice and progress in order to play Sunday. Lewis is a big part of the defensive end rotation on defense.

Defensive end Kwity Paye was limited with a hamstring injury. Paye has been struggling with a hamstring injury lately but looks to be progressing through it this week. Hopefully he can continue and play Sunday.

Right tackle Braden Smith missed practice today with thumb and foot injuries. Smith continues to work off to the side with the Colts head trainer.

Defensive end Kemoko Turay missed practice today with a groin injury. Turay looks very doubtful to play this week and could be set to miss his second game in a row.

Cornerback Rock Ya-Sin missed practice again today with an ankle injury. Ya-Sin has been dealing with an ankle injury lately and he has already missed playing time because of it. It looks like Ya-Sin could miss another game this week.

Safety Julian Blackmon tore his Achilles in practice on Wednesday and will be out for the remainder of the season.

Safety Andrew Sendejo continued to be limited in practice with a concussion. Sendejo needs to pass through the leagues concussion protocol before he can return to play.

Cornerback Xavier Rhodes was limited with an ankle injury. Rhodes has struggled this year with injuries and poor play, another injury is the last thing Rhodes and the defense need. The Colts are banged up on defense and cornerback with both Rhodes and Ya-Sin struggling with ankle injuries.
